Summary
The documentation generally maintains cross-platform parity, but there are minor signs of Windows bias. In the Docker daemon startup instructions, macOS/Windows (Docker Desktop) is mentioned before Linux, and Linux users are given explicit shell commands while Windows/macOS users are told to launch Docker Desktop. The verification steps for cleanup and Docker images use bash commands, which are not directly applicable to Windows users unless they use WSL or Git Bash. There are no PowerShell-specific examples, but the ordering and phrasing sometimes prioritize Windows/macOS over Linux. No critical functionality is locked to Windows, and Linux users can complete all tasks.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly mention that Docker Desktop is available for both Windows and macOS, and clarify Linux alternatives.
  • Provide PowerShell equivalents for bash commands where relevant, or clarify that bash commands are for Linux/macOS and suggest alternatives for Windows users (e.g., using WSL, PowerShell, or Docker Desktop UI).
  • When listing OS-specific instructions, alternate the order or present them in parallel to avoid implicit prioritization.
  • Add a note about using WSL or Git Bash for Windows users who want to run bash commands.
  • Ensure all verification and cleanup steps are clearly described for both Linux and Windows environments.
